your new heads make actually slightly less compression than your old 088s. you wouldnt/shouldnt see much diifferance in head swap from the 088s to the dart aluminum unless you went with a 110cc chamber. intake runner volume may come into play with some cam choices.(but probably not much) the 088s have a cc of 118 and you say your new aluminum heads have 119cc which was actually an increase of combustable volume. about the only way at this point to maybe increase power level is to change cam timing. if in fact you have a timing set that is adjustable. other than that its my belief that your biggest gain was losing about 90 pounds of weight in the engine compartment.
oh i think the 160 to 180 temp is about right. i wouldnt change much there.
